Even as I type minifishspecial is growing taller (it’s the quality of the diet obviously). Discussion today suggests a leaning towards gravel/CX rather than a gnarpoon.

At present I’m looking at Islabikes Luath, Frog Road and Worx JA.

Anything obvious that I’m missing, stupid wheel sizes to look out for, non standard standards to consider. Happy to look at XS adult bikes and second hand too.

Thoughts and advice welcome.

Thanks jameso – that looks alright actually. Are Hoy actually pinnacle in disguise (or are you not allowed to say)?

I’ve seen this coming up reduced

No secrets there – different frame factories, different assemblers to Pinnacle kids bikes. Some cross-over in frame manufacturing with Pinnacle’s higher-end adult bikes.

Fair play, thanks.

minifishspecial is currently deliberating the merits of the Hoy and the Worx. Apparently the genesis is the wrong colour, which is a bit of a pity – I quite liked it.
